Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her

Chapter 424

Chen Wei took five minutes to place the number in front of her.Ye Yuning dialed the number without another word. The call was quickly answered. "Ningning."

Hearing this form of address, Ye Yuning’s gaze sharpened, a touch of murderous intent in her eyes. "You did this?"

Although it was a question, her tone was full of certainty.

Considering the continuous and absurd robbery incidents from yesterday to today, Ye Yuning was absolutely certain Qin Jinchuan was behind them.

Qin Jinchuan chuckled lightly. "Ningning, what are you talking about? I don’t quite understand."

"You don’t understand? You ransacked my Xiangti, and last night you came to ransack my studio!"

"It’s always been Ningning who threatens me; you can’t just speak carelessly."

The phrase "can’t just speak carelessly" was heavy with insinuation.

Ye Yuning instantly understood. This is essentially his admission. But given his past actions, he definitely won’t confess outright! He’s worried about his phone call being recorded!

And indeed, at this moment, Ye Yuning was so furious she hadn’t even thought about recording the call!

Unfortunately for her, Qin Jinchuan was wary enough to anticipate this—a classic case of ’once bitten, twice shy.’

"Where are you?" Ye Yuning struggled to contain her rage, asking through gritted teeth.

Qin Jinchuan replied, "Are we having a meal together? How about at that scumbag restaurant you opened?"

Ye Yuning fell silent.

Damn it! He even knows about this...

She had originally planned to personally send him the restaurant’s location once it was ready, as a counterattack for his ’Green Tea’ jab from yesterday. But now he already knew.

Ye Yuning was so angry she hung up the phone directly.

On the other end of the line, Qin Jinchuan was currently in his office.

The frustration he’d felt upon waking early that morning was instantly replaced by delight after receiving her call.

Ji Nan entered and noticed the smile playing on Qin Jinchuan’s lips.

He blinked and stepped closer. "The restaurant was organized by Miss Yan Jun, and Miss Ye is a shareholder."

"Yan Jun? That tomboy?"

Ji Nan nodded. "Yes!"

Qin Jinchuan was silent.

In Upper City, it was rumored that the Yan Family had three sons, each exceptionally talented. The only exception was the youngest child, who, instead of pursuing the family business, learned to cook and eventually opened a restaurant. What most people didn’t know, however, was that this youngest child of the Yan Family was actually a woman. She always kept her hair short and neat, and her personality was as carefree as a boy’s. To this day, very few knew her true gender.

Seeing Qin Jinchuan silent, Ji Nan added, "The ’Back View’ is hers."

Qin Jinchuan remained silent.

Hearing this, his breathing grew heavier.

The memory of being rushed to the hospital, overpowered by spice, flashed through his mind. He sneered, "So, when Ye Yuning set me up that day, Yan Jun also had a hand in it?"

He’d felt the pepper’s spiciness was abnormal the moment he was admitted to the hospital; he later learned it was an imported Devil Pepper.

Ji Nan nodded. "Almost certainly."

Qin Jinchuan’s thin lips pressed together tightly, his eyes flashing with a vengeful glint. "Heh, it seems the Yan Family’s upbringing isn’t all that great, is it? Call Yan Ci."

Yan Ci was Yan Jun’s older brother, the successor the Yan Family was focused on cultivating.

However, Yan Ci was not Mrs. Yan’s biological son but had been brought into the family by Mr. Yan from outside.

The relationship this Yan Ci had with Yan Yu, Mrs. Yan’s biological son, and Yan Jun wasn’t good at all.

Hearing that Qin Jinchuan wanted to contact Yan Ci, Ji Nan felt a jolt of surprise but nodded. "Alright!"

Although he didn’t know Qin Jinchuan’s purpose in contacting Yan Ci, judging by his vindictive nature over the years, Ji Nan knew it couldn’t be for anything good. Besides, Yan Ci’s poor relationship with Yan Jun and Yan Yu was no secret in Upper City; Ji Nan was well aware of it. To not contact Yan Jun’s father, but instead her estranged older brother...

...

「At the studio, the police arrived.」

They took another statement, but Ye Yuning said nothing, merely claiming that nothing was stolen.

After the police left, Chen Wei looked at Ye Yuning in confusion. "Why didn’t you tell the police Young Master Qin did this? Get him thrown in jail!"

Upon hearing that, Ye Yuning shot Chen Wei a look, as if she were looking at an idiot.

Chen Wei was speechless.

Honestly! What was I thinking? Sending Young Master Qin to jail? Our boss doesn’t have that kind of power. I was just busy cleaning up the studio with everyone, and the mess made me furious. In my anger, I just hoped Ye Yuning could teach that Young Master Qin a lesson!

Ye Yuning closed her eyes. "Send him to jail? You think too highly of me."

"Then you’re just going to swallow this insult?"

"What else can I do if I don’t?" Ye Yuning replied irritably.

Chen Wei was momentarily stunned. Seriously? Is she really just going to let it go? This isn’t like Ye Yuning’s usual temperament! When has she ever been so humiliated?

While the two were talking, Qin Jinchuan’s call came through. Ye Yuning grabbed the landline and answered, "Hello."

"That recording... it should be gone by now, right?" Qin Jinchuan’s smiling voice came from the other end of the line.

Listening to his voice now, it sounded unmistakably teasing, no matter how one interpreted it.

Ye Yuning was silent.

So, he’d been tormenting her since yesterday just for that recording? That damn bastard! The recording was stolen yesterday; how could she possibly still have it? It was the first time she’d ever seen someone so brazenly confront a person who held leverage over them by directly robbing and stealing! She’d never imagined that her original plan to threaten Qin Jinchuan into backing down would cause her so much trouble. She’d never suffered such a humiliating setback before...

Ye Yuning closed her eyes and gritted her teeth into the phone, "Qin Jinchuan, you’re ruthless!"

"Shall we have lunch together?" he asked, his tone dripping with provocation. "The Green Tea Restaurant, or that scumbag restaurant you opened?"

Ye Yuning’s anger finally exploded. She roared into the phone, "Drop dead!"
